A C++ driver for RethinkDB 2.0, enabling native database interactions with modern C++ syntax.
librethinkdbxx is a C++ driver for RethinkDB 2.0 that provides a native interface to interact with RethinkDB databases using ReQL queries. It allows C++ applications to connect to RethinkDB servers, execute queries, and process results with modern C++ syntax and patterns. The driver solves the problem of integrating RethinkDB's real-time document database capabilities into C++ projects without relying on external bindings.
C++ developers building applications that require real-time database interactions with RethinkDB, particularly those who prefer native C++ libraries over language bindings.
Developers choose librethinkdbxx because it offers a tested, idiomatic C++ API that directly mirrors RethinkDB's ReQL, ensuring compatibility and reducing abstraction overhead compared to generic database connectors.
RethinkDB driver for C++
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Utilizes contemporary C++ patterns such as smart pointers and range-based for loops, making the codebase clean and memory-safe, as demonstrated in the example using std::unique_ptr.
Provides full support for ReQL queries with a fluent, chainable syntax, allowing direct translation of ReQL operations like filter and row from Python to C++.
Passes over 2000 tests from the upstream ReQL test suite, ensuring high compatibility and reliability with RethinkDB's query language.
Supports debug builds, custom installation paths, and optional inclusion of documentation, offering adaptability for various development setups.
The project is labeled as 'Still in early stages of development,' which implies potential instability, incomplete features, and a higher risk of breaking changes.
Documentation is minimal, and the optional inclusion of Python driver docs indicates a reliance on external resources, making it challenging for new users to get started.
Tied to RethinkDB, which has a smaller user base and community compared to more popular databases, limiting available tools, integrations, and community support.
